We are extremely excited to create this endowment to sustain the important mission of Campus Ministry at Concordia College! 

As we reflect on our student years at Concordia, we have wonderful memories of daily chapel services along with the strong spiritual influence of our campus pastor, Carl Lee. It is our hope that the Eidsvold Family Endowed Fund for Campus Ministries will give current and future students the same opportunity that we had to grow in their faith life.

Through the years since our graduation, we have enjoyed staying involved in the life and mission of Concordia. We have two children who both graduated from Lutheran colleges. Sara is a 1996 graduate of Concordia and Philip graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 1999. Jim has had the special honor to serve as President of the National Alumni Board and as a member of Concordia’s Board of Regents. We are thankful for the educational and spiritual foundation we received at Concordia College and it is with joyful hearts that we give this gift from our family! Soli Deo Gloria!

The primary purpose of the Eidsvold Family Endowed Fund for Campus Ministries is to support campus ministry at Concordia College.
